2\left(x-2\right)\leq 3\left(5x+1\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 3,2. Since 6 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
2x-4\leq 3\left(5x+1\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x-2.
2x-4\leq 15x+3
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 5x+1.
2x-4-15x\leq 3
Subtract 15x from both sides.
-13x-4\leq 3
Combine 2x and -15x to get -13x.
-13x\leq 3+4
Add 4 to both sides.
-13x\leq 7
Add 3 and 4 to get 7.
x\geq -\frac{7}{13}
Divide both sides by -13. Since -13 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
